Style Overhaul
Get ready to feel pampered and looking fabulous! The words “I have nothing to wear” will be banished from your vocabulary! The style overhaul will help you create a complete wardrobe that’s so amazing you can’t wait to get up in the morning to get dressed!
STEP 1
It starts with an in-home consultation where I get to know you and your current wardrobe. Together we will decide what to keep, what to get altered, what to donate and what to shop for.
Then, we create a customized shopping list and a defined budget that details what items we need for a smooth, effecient shopping experience.
STEP 2
Next, I head out and custom pick wardrobe essentials – these will be the building blocks to a multi-functional wardrobe.
With each shopping experience, all you will have to do is simply show up to a dressing room filled with hand picked items just for you!
STEP 3
Our second shopping trip will focus on finding one of a kind items. Key pieces that truly define your personal style and instantly take your basics to the next level.
On our third shopping trip, we will focus on shoes and accessories, activewear, or lingerie and shapewear.
STEP 4
When it’s all said and done, we’ll come back to your home to blend your new wardrobe items with your old favorites and show you how to accessorize each look with panache.
Digital photos will help you remember the new looks and make getting dressed a breeze. Get ready to look and feel fabulous!
To work with someone so effortlessly chic was amazing! Priya can whip up an outfit and create a look that is so unique yet fits your personality and lifestyle. She is pure styling talent! Plus, Priya is not afraid to push your style boundaries. She showed me pieces that I never thought I could pull off but in the end, I loved the look and felt super confident. It could be as simple as a scarf or a lace up shoe, she has an eye for fashion and finding great brands at even better prices. Working with her was not only fun but a styling education.
Mallika MalhotraFAQ's
But Wait... You might be wondering why can't I just do a Sort and not a Shop? Or, just a Style?
Here is why: My experience with numerous clients has taught me that all of the elements are necessary. If all I do is a Sort, you may be left with a diminished closet and no real plan for acquiring the missing pieces. If we do nothing but Shop, you miss out on all the amazing outfits I can help you create with those new items and old favorites. Through the Sort, Shop & Style, you will enter your closet each morning and know that it's only filled with things you love and look great on you.
I like to shop at discount stores like Nordstrom Rack and Marshalls? Do you take clients there?
I do not. While I like a good sale myself, I find it difficult to do a full shopping trip for a client at these locations. Sizes are tough to find for starters. However, I do an excellent job at finding items on sale at regular retailers. In fact, I try to help my clients save as much money as possible by searching through these discount racks first.
Money and/or time is not important to me. I just want an enjoyable experience and beautiful clothing. Do you do that?
Avec grand plaisir. I have established wonderful relationships with retailers around my area. I am able to get the best fittings rooms for my clients, snacks and water, and an experienced sales associate to pull sizes if need be. In addition, Bloomingdales offers my clients free lunches at 40 Carrots.
How much money should I expect to spend on the clothing and accessories?
I am happy to work with a budget but if a client truly wants to make a difference in their style then $2000 is a good place to start.
I am on a tight budget and would like to spend less than $1000 for a wardrobe makeover. Do you work with budget conscious shoppers?
Absolutely, but staying within this budget is easier for a repeat client or for someone who is really looking for key additions to their closet.
How long is our shopping trip when I go shopping with you?
I spend 1-hour pre-shopping for the client, which includes a carefully curated selection of items. Our time together is usually 1.5-2.5 hours.
How many stores do we go to?
If we do a department store then most times just 1. But if I determine that we need to shop in specialty stores then I would say 2 to 3.
Where do you like to take clients shopping?
At a place they find convenient. If they do not specify a location then we typically go to a mall in the local area.
Do you make commission on the purchases I make at the stores you take me to? How does it work when you shop for me?
I do not make a commission. Hence I have no agenda to push items at you. Unlike a store sales associate who needs the commission and has no idea of your existing closet or your needs.
I don’t need a lot of advice. I just want someone to get my shopping done for me. Is that something you do?
My working clients prefer email, texts and sometimes just give me a budget. I shop and personally deliver the items to their doorstep.
Can you teach me how to dress so I won’t need you every time I go shopping?
Possibly the best part of my job. Yes! We talk a lot about styling tips and hacks. We take pictures and over time it becomes second nature. I am happy to answer style-related SOS emails and texts for my clients.
